Ilya Shevchenko, of IL-2 Sturmovik fame of course, posted another of his weekly updates for what could be his next masterpiece, DCS WWII: Europe 1944. Like all of his weekly updates, this one is lengthy, fully of detail, and possibly very dry for anyone not…

Heart Forth, Alicia – Previewed By Julie Morley [divider] It’s all a lie. The legends, our history, it’s nothing more than a lie conceived to enwrap us in ignorance and safety. At least, in theory it would. What if everything we understood about our world’s…
Exogenesis Previewed By Nathaniel Liles [divider] I absolutely love it when a developer makes a game demo public and free to people on Kickstarter. It’s the best way for a person to make sure that they know what they’re getting into, and it’s the perfect…
Many games these days, even multiplayer experiences that seemingly allow you to choose your adventure, have a predetermined narrative. You’re the chosen one, or you’re the world’s last hope, or you’re magic. Something is special about you, even if there’s something special about 5 million…
